The Husky wrestling squad will celebrate the accomplishments of two outstanding SCSU athletes. On Saturday October 19th at 12:00 p.m. in the Huskies wrestling room there will be a banner ceremony to honor two 2013 seniors, Jacob Kahnke and Shamus O’Grady.

Two banners will be unveiled. One for O’Grady’s national championship and the other represents Kahnke’s achievement of four All-American honors. O'Grady won the 184-pound national title in 2013 at the NCAA Division II Championships. The championships took place in Birmingham, Ala., where Kahnke earned his fourth All-American certificate. Following the banner ceremony fans are invited to Howie's Sports Bar in St. Cloud for a social. Kahnke and O'Grady will both be on hand.

Though O'Grady has graduated he does still play a role on the Huskies wrestling team. He makes his debut this season as an assistant coach under head coach Steve Costanzo.
